    Engine seized

    I'm sure you know more than me, but just be 100% sure it's seized. I remember first time I got it was told it was seized, but it was just a seized AC compressor that made it look like it was all seized. My 2001 has about 260k but everytime I want to scrap it, it ends up being fixable.... Only...

    Brake Line Blocking Caliper Bolt (Front Passenger)

    Cool. Can I just replace it with a normal bolt like the rear has? Why use torx in front instead anyway? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk

    Brake Line Blocking Caliper Bolt (Front Passenger)

    I appreciate the input about cleaning the fluid out, I was trying to justify replacing the calipers as one of them has a boot that store and there's this really cool red ones that are not that expensive on Amazon comma Plus for me learning how to do all these repairs and changes is fun and since...

    What is this part called?

    I grabbed 6 feet of quarter inch fuel line to replace it , because they did not have quarter inch vacuum hose because they did not have quarter inch vacuum hose, do you think that will be a problem? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk

    Thanks for the heads up, I am going to go do the smell test :-) once I get home and let the truck cool down a little bit, if it's bad I will be changing it both front and rear myself probably next weekend. On a related topic the hose that connects to the differential and then goes up and behind...

    Clicking Rattling mirror

    My mirror rattles and makes a clicking skund when I drive. It goes away if I put pressure on top with my hand. Any ideas how to get rid of this and give my hand a rest? Thanks as always. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk

    What is this part called?

    I have been working on and learning about my 2001 Expedition as things break or make me nervous, but I haven't gotten to this yet. I saw a plug on it labeled drain and one labeled fill and was wondering if I missed some routine maintenance. Thanks. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk

    Brake Line Blocking Caliper Bolt (Front Passenger)

    Thanks guys. I think I'd need a size 6 box wrench, I'm still using Nd old duralast set and don't have that, I need to upgrade ;) I used an adjustable wrench amd it was way better than the vice grips thanks. I still needed to bend the brake line some. I was doing this all in the dark with...
